Killer fix up. Great closing with the montage with unzipping and opening case reveal of the final look!

[@RetroRepairYT]

[@vinyminotaur2694]

1:50 those white marks are just old flux

[@RetroRepairYT]

Bro question on my elite series 2 controller the Paddle 4 is unresponsive and I can t hear the click of Paddles 1 and 3 do you know what to do

[@RetroRepairYT]

Interesting, I would try swapping the paddles around to see if you can get it to click. If that works then that means you have use those paddles so much you have worn them down. And I would recommend getting a new set of paddles if that works
